To solve this problem, we can begin by analyzing the graph and then eliminating incorrect answers. By looking at the graph, we can see that it has a positive correlation (the graph is increasing from left to right), which tells us that it has a positive slope. Using this knowledge, we can eliminate answer choices C and D, which both suggest equations with a negative slope (which would mean that the line was decreasing from left to right).
Next, we must analyze the slope. Answer A suggests that the slope is 3/2, meaning that the line rises 3 units for every 2 units it goes across. Answer B suggests that the slope is 1/2, meaning that the line rises 1 unit for every 2 units that it goes across. If we look at the graph, let's say at the point (0,3), the next closest point is 3 units up and 2 units across, which lets us know that the slope is positive 3/2.
Therefore, your answer is A. y = 3/2x + 3 (which is confirmed by the point we recognized, (0,3), which is the y-intercept of the equation).
Hope this helps!
The algebraic property demonstrated in the example below is Transitive Property of Equality. There we can see how the first thing is equal to the second one and notice that the first one is equal to the third one too. This is a Transitive Property of Equality in a nutshel.
Answer:
55%
the percent decrease of the sale price from the regular price is 55%
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage decrease is the percentage change in the sales price (regular and new)
Percentage decrease %∆P = ∆P/Pr × 100%
∆P = change in sales price = $135 - $60.75
Pr = regular price = $135
Substituting the values;
%∆P = (135-60.75)/135 × 100%
%∆P = 55%
the percent decrease of the sale price from the regular price is 55%

Step-by-step explanation:
No of miles a day = 5.75 miles
No of miles after 5 days = 5.75 x 5 = 28.75 miles
